Comments
Took a SE trending lead yesterday that seemed promising, but ended in a large "puddle". Weather was very ordinary this morning, but has cleared locally, allowing us an ice reccon flight, which I've just returned from. Our track in to this position is no longer visible, and options out of here are few. That said, there are some leads to our NW. We are yet to discuss our intentions, just wanted to get this sent off. Stay tuned! REGARDS Doug and Nicki
